(Harry P.O.V)

“Hi mum, you are looking beautiful as always and I know you will wake up soon,” I greeted my mum as I walk through the door and give her kisses on both cheeks. I place the lotus flower next to her night stand and chuck away the dead lotus flower from the vase.

My mum loves lotus flowers, she told me that lotus flower display a deep meaning about life. It is the only type of flower that blooms from mud but once it peeks through the surface it becomes one of the most beautiful flowers out there.

“Sorry I am a bit late today I kind of got lost on my first day at school and I am sorry I won’t be able to visit you as much as much as I want anymore but I will still see you every day though,” I told her as I took the seat next to her bed and hold her hand.

“Dad doesn't come home that much anymore ever since THAT day, but I am not complaining and I prefer to be home alone with Mrs. Pott anyways. I can't stand being under the same roof as him or else I'll end up killing him. My first day of school was O.K. the teachers that I got seems to be nice and no, I haven’t made any friends yet mum. The only person that tried to talk to me was this girl name Tasman, I think, she doesn't seem like the type of person I could be friends with mum. I know you tell me not to judge a book by its cover but she is one of those popular people that I tried to avoid, I guess I was a bit rude rejecting her handshakes today and I know you taught me better than that.” I stated, during the school break I used to come and keep her company from the morning till it was dark but now school starts I could only visit her from 3:30-8 pm.

Every day I would come to visit and tell her pretty much everything that pops up in my mind, from sports to politics. Some of you may find it extremely boring but being in my mums’ presence was the only thing that is keeping me alive myself.

“Speaking of Tasman, she is in all of my classes and I saw her just a couple of minutes ago in the cancer ward. I don’t exactly know what she is doing here but she was setting up the music program for the cancer patients, she might be working here but isn't she too young?” I asked my mum, of course I didn't get an answer in reply but come to think of it, does this Tasman girl actually works here? I didn't see her come here during the school breaks.

“Oh I almost forgot mum, first day of school and we are already getting out first assignment for music. It is a partner thing where we have to work on a piece of music together and perform for the class after four weeks. Remember the girl I was telling you about before? Well she is my partner for this assignment and I don’t know what to do mum. Should I like invite her to our house to work on it together after school or something? Or should I just do it myself and hand it in when it is due? I don’t even know how to start a conversation with her mum, and I am sure she doesn't want to be working on this with me either because she was actually planning on doing it with a kid name Neal or Nail I think.” I explained to my mum and at times like this, I miss my mum the most. I don’t have any guardian angel to lead me into the light but there are thousands of strings hanging around that willing to pull me more into the dark.

Tears slid down my cheeks, I miss my mother more than ever because she is the only person I have left in this world and I can’t lose her. I grabbed my guitar and started to sing her favorite song. I sing this to her every time I come and visit, but I also sing the songs I wrote for her.

When I am down and, oh, my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

I sang the first verse, my tears are now just flowing endlessly and singing this song just bring back so many pain memories for both my mum and I. I think this is the reason why my mum loves this song because it is very relatable to her life.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.

The chorus is what hit me the most and the words touch the deepest part of my life. The lyrics portray my situation perfectly with my relationship between my unconscious mum and me.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

I finished of the song but more like sniffling throughout the song with the chorus and got up to kiss my mum on her forehead.

“I love you mum,” I told her as I kiss both of her cheeks and put my guitar back into its case. I look at my watch and it is already 7:45 pm.

Wow time does really fly.

“I will see you tomorrow mum,” I said walking out of the room, as I enter the lobby in the cancer ward I heard a beautiful female voice signing one of my old time favorite song ‘Imagine’ by Elton John.

The girl that tried to talk to talk to me, the girl that have the same classes as me, the girl that have to be my partner for four weeks was sitting there in the mini stage singing her heart out for the cancer patients which made them cry and she herself is seem to be crying. I just stared at her as she finish up the song, her voice is so captivating and I’ve never heard such a beautiful sound like that before.

Everyone started to get up and stack there chairs, I must have been in a daze from her dreamy voice that I didn’t realize that it was finish and people are starting to pack up. Tasman is now putting everything away, I don’t think she saw me and I hope she didn’t anyway, so I decided to walk off and head home.
